As everyone probably knows, tastes differ. Especially when it comes to food. Someone likes gourmet haute cuisine, and someone is really crazy about such a simple and native mac and cheese. How many people - so many opinions.
But sometimes there are completely extreme cases that actually stagger the imagination so much that they remain in the memory of witnesses for years, and sometimes for their lives. Even if this witness was working at Subway at the time, which means they saw thousands of various orders.
For example, like Twitter user Garlic, who started a whole thread about strange orders, talking about the most unusual sandwich she had ever seen in her entire life. The initial tweet became extremely popular, gaining over 146.8K likes and nearly 18.8K retweets.

So, the Original Poster, in her early twenties, worked at Subway. The OP admits that she has seen a lot of strange orders, but the very sandwich that the story will be about continues to appear in her nightmares.

A group of high school-aged kids walked into the cafe, and one girl ordered a sandwich with ranch dressing
It was at the very beginning of the evening shift, around 5 or 6 PM. A whole group of high school-aged kids walk into the cafe, and OP comes out to serve one of the girls. She asks for the biggest baguette, with double provolone and double American cheese. No vegetables or sauces... wait, no... ranch, please.

So the OP starts pouring the sauce over the sandwich. Once, twice... the client is silent, showing with her whole appearance: "Just go on!" The sauce begins to drip a little from the edges, but the girl remains completely unperturbed.

When the sauce bottle was almost empty, the girl just asked for another bottle
As the sandwich was almost hidden under the copious mass of ranch, OP felt like she was running out of sauce in her bottle. The girl encouraged her: "Do you have another bottle?" In dismay, the author of the post turned her gaze to the manager, but he acted in direct accordance with the principle "The customer is always right."

The girl finally sat at her table and began to eat that monstrous sandwich
At the beginning of the second bottle, when the sandwich itself was no longer visible, the girl finally stopped. She didn't ask for salt or pepper, and the OP packed this monster with great difficulty. The girl thanked her, and then, joining her friends at the table, began to calmly absorb it.

The most striking thing, as the OP admits, is that during all this time, the girl was absolutely calm, did not smile, did not show any embarrassment, and generally behaved as if such sandwiches were completely ordinary for her. But the OP herself, as we have already said, over the following years, more than once recalled this really strange case.

People in the comments recalled a lot of weird orders - one was even from Matthew McConaughey
We must say that people in the comments immediately began to recall the strangest cases from their own memory. For example, one of the commenters' 13-year-old son once asked for a chocolate chip bagel with salmon cream cheese - and not only asked, but even ate it with apparent pleasure! And another customer once ordered a Subway with cookies, but with a side of dijon mustard for dipping the cookies.

By the way, it turns out that not only ordinary people but also celebrities are subject to such food oddities. For example, one of the commenters, who also worked at Subway at one time, recalled that once, back in 2006, Matthew McConaughey came to them and ordered the Tuna - but toasted. The smell, in the end, was completely unbearable, but the famous actor quite liked it...
